A CASE OF SUPPOsITIONs.-Suppose
there were law Just enacted by the
Legislature Of Massachusetts,, for in
ance, requiring the Attorney-General
of that Commonwealth to bring suit
against certain taxpayers. Suppose
the Acknowledgement should proceed
in the discharge of his duty and bring
such suits.
Suppose some of the defendants
should apply to the United States Cir
cult Judge to enjoin the Attorney-Gen-
eral from proceeding further on the
ground that the statute in question
which had never been passed upon by
the United States Supreme Court. or
any court-was contrary to the United
States Constitution.
Suppose the Judge granted that in
junction, that the AttOrney-General
went on with his suits, and that finally
the Judge fined him $500 and put him
in jail.
What would the good people of Massa-
chusetts. or for that matter, any north
I'm State, not accustomed to interfe-
FENCES of this character, think OF a
United States Judge who would claim
and exercise such arbitrary, unusual,
and almost revolutionary power?
Yet this is just what United States
Circuit Judge Bond has done in the
State of Virginia. Her Attorney-Gene-
ral now lies in Richmond Jail by his
order until he pay the fine and celse
performing his duties.
The Supreme Court of the United
States will be asked to pass upon Bond
at once.
If Bond is right, we all ought to know
it, and if Bond is wrong, no ought to
know it mighty quick.
From the Baltimore SUM-
Judge Bonds decision in the cases
resulting from the coupon-crusher act
passed by the Virginia Legislature in
May, 1887, is sufficiently comprehen-
sive. 1t is also subversive Of the sover-
eighty of Virginia to an extent not an
ticipated, perhaps, as possible, when IN
the last century Virginia proposed to
her sister colonies the formation of a
CnIted States Government.
1t will be an odd sight to see the lails
everywhere filled with State officers Tor
OGoying the State laws.

LONDON, November 2O.-Police ar

SO extensive as on last Sunday, though
the force on hand was sufficient. It

promptly dispersed. No noticeable
disturbance occurred during the day,
and by dusk it was evident that. any
attempt to speak had been abandoned.
The special constable force, some
5000 strong, was then dismissed.

A SENSATIONAL CASE.
A Chicagoan Attempts to Murder
his Family.

CHICAGO, November GOWN.
Myers, foreman of the blast furnace
of the North Chicago Rolling Mill
Company at South Chicago, returned
to his home this evening after having
been away all day, and without utter
ing word shot his wife three times,
inficting fatal injuries. He then
fred the remaining shots in his re-
volver at his daughter Laura aged Is
and his son Allie aged IA, but neither
OF the shots took effect. Myers started
to reload his revolver when the girl
ran screaming from the house. He
hurriedly pushed the revolver in the
boys pocket and rushed from the
house. He has not yet been captured.
The cause of the shooting cannot be
ascertained.

The Charities of the q. A. r..


Well, words are facts when they an
nounce great principles. But the order
has something else to show. It is do
ing a grand and noble work in charity
to the families of the deceased and
dependent soldiers. For this year the
actual reported outlay exceeds $685.
600; but if we reckon the amounts
paid for the same purpose and never
reported, it is fair to say that not less
than half million dollars have been
thus expended. During the sixteen
wears from 1871 to 1886, the sum of
81, 173, 1888. so has been disbursed in
charities; and it is well known that
one-half is not reported, there can be
no exaggeration in saying that twice
that amount has thus been well spent.
1t may, indeed, be doubted whether
this order does not give a greater per-
centa 70 of its receipts, if not larger
total amount, in charity, than any
other organization, religious or sec
ular. There are no distributing
agents in the order. All the money
disbursed in charity is given directly
to the needy recipients; the families
of deceased soldiers, or those depend
ing on soldiers, who, because Of dis
ease or wounds, are unable to provide
for their families; and, in some in
stances, to the soldiers themselves

SMOKING RUINS.
A Disastrous Fire at CRANKY,
Missouri.


Missouri.
ST.. LOUIS, November 20.-A disas-
trous fire is reported from CRANKY,
Mo-, thriving town in the lead re-
gion Of Newton county. 1t started
late yesterday afternoon, and. owing
to the extreme dryness prevailing in
that section, the wooden buildings, of
which the town is composed, burned
like finder. Every effort was made
to stop the progress of the confagra-
ton, and men and buckets were sent
from Neosho, but there was not
enough water in the town to enable
them to do much. At last reports,
early this morning, over one hundred
buildings had been consumed, includ-
ing all the business portion of the
town, and scores of families there are
homeless. The loss, it is thought,
will exceed 100000.
LATER AND BETTER NEWS.
Later advices received tonight in
dictate that the fire was not SO dis
astrous as at first stated. Fifteen
business houses and large number
of residences were destroyed, how
ever. The homeless people have
been cared for.

Fastening Corsets by Machinery.

An interesting fact was educed in
the course of a lecture on tight lac
ing delivered yesterday, October 18th,
by Miss Heffler- Arnin. The lecturer
said '.she had heard of instances
where ladies were SO determined not
to exceed the fashionable measure
ment that they had actually held on
to a cross-bar while their maids had
fastened the fifteen inch corset"
Being but imperfectly acquainted
with these mysteries we can only sup
pose that the effect of holding on to
the cross-bar is to elongate the body
more than would be possible by mere
ly standing upright. There seems to
be a field for invention here. If il
really is SO important to squeeze the
body inside a tifteen-inch cylinder let
it be done scientifically.
A combined body stretcher and
waist compressor would supply a de-
cided want. Indeed, it ought to have
been invented before fashion decreed
the 6fteen-inch corset. 1t is surely
very thoughtless to order people 70
make themselves measure niteen
inches round the waist without pro-
viding them with the necessary ma
chinery. LIST. James Gasette.

BRIDGEPoRr, Conn.,, November 20.
The main building of Barnum and
Bailey's the greatest show on earth,
was destroyed by fire this evening.
The alarm was sounded and in less
than 80 minutes the building, which
was 600 by 200 feet and two stories in
height, was entirely consumed. The
fire originated from the ex-
plosion of lantern. No one
dared approach it, being fear
full of the crazed animals. Three
elephants were burned, and thirty-six
broke from their fastenings and dashed
through the sides Of the burning struc-
ture, roaring and trumpeting in a ter
rite manner. Six elephants and a
large African hippopotamus rushed
about the streets, presenting
A sICKENING APPEARANCE.
Their sides were burned, and great
piles OF flesh a foot square fell off.
Thirty elephants and large lion have
started across the country towards
Fairfield and Easton. Great excite
ment has seized many residents,
and they have barred the win.
dows and doors of their houses.
In the horse room were all the
ring animals, trained horses
ponies, etc., were all burned. The
cat room where were the birds, mon
keys, rhinosceri, hyenas, tigers,
lions and all the menagerie, also fell
prey to the flames. A great deal Of
valuables, tents and other property
were also burned. The total loss is
estimated at not less than $500, 900,
with but 500, 900 insurance.
NCENDIARIsM PROBABLE.
Later-It is now learned that the
Waterman discovered the fire while
making his rounds, and started to
give the alarm when an unknown per-
son hit him on the head with blunt
instrument. One of the three elephants
burned was the "Sacred White Ele-
phant." The lion which escaped
from the police at the time the fire
broke out was later found in barn,
where he had killed and was devour-
ing COW. He was shot.

the Commission has adopted a much
more stringent form of application,
which will he put in immediate use.
In addition to requiring the most spe-

answer to much greater number OF
questions, particularly as to personal
history. A change has also been
made in the form of certificates re-

bona fide residents Of the applicants

them must be from his county, city or
